Sumario:HAD-B1 is a Korean herbal formula designed to treat solid tumors, and through cell experiments, it has proven to have an anticancer effect. The current study aims to test the safety of HAD-B1. This experiment is under the regulation of ICH. In order to find if HAD-B1 has any effect on the CNS, 0, 500, 1000, and 2000 mg/kg/day of HAD-B1 were orally administered to male and female rats once. To discover any effect on the respiratory system, 0, 500, 1000, and 2000 mg/kg/day of HAD-B1 were orally given to male rats followed by measuring the respiratory rate, tidal volume, and minute respiratory volume. To assess the possibility of a delayed QT period as a result of the drug administration, hERG analysis was conducted at 0, 0.1, 0.3, and 1 μg/ml. To assess any effect on the cardiovascular system, 0, 500, 1000, and 2000 mg/kg/day of HAD-B1 were orally given to male beagle dogs once followed by temperature, blood pressure, ECG, and heart rate analyses. There were no clinically significant changes in both male and female rats on assessing any effects on the CNS. There were no clinically significant changes in male rats’ respiratory assessment. There were no clinically significant changes in hERG analysis results. There were no clinically significant changes in the cardiovascular system of male beagle dogs. Our results demonstrate that HAD-B1 is a safe herbal formula that does not have a clinically significant effect on the CNS, respiratory, and cardiovascular systems.
